I was able to get some great photos. The exhibits were nice, however the place was so crowded everything felt rushed. They have a lot of great content, but because so many people were there (and the place is smaller than imagined) it was challenging to digest it all. I would recommend going, but hope they space out the timed tickets.

  • Jacob Erpenbeck

Had a great time today! My kiddos (6 & 9) had a lot of fun too. Lots of really great family pictures. It was a unique experience. Staff was very helpful, providing suggestions and an extra hand to take fun family pictures when necessary. We spent a few hours exploring. It's a little pricey, but I'm glad we went. More

  • Miranda L

We really enjoyed this! If you love puzzles you could honestly spend hours and hours here. We spent 2 hours here and still didn’t finish all the puzzles. I really enjoyed this experience and would do it again! The workers were so kind and everything had directions and a little prompt

  • Nidhi Shah

Fun Place. It will take you to insta inspired place lol. But it is very cool and fun experience. Some staff were really helpful and some just did not want to help. I think the price is not worth the time I spent there. Wish it was little cheaper to make it work. More

  • V. Malcolm Copeland

Pricey but worthwhile. Lots of interactive displays and great pics galore. Staff was friendly and more the. happy to explain or take pics as needed. Even kid friendly and souvenirs that’ll catch your eye. The rotating walkway chamber is the best! More

  • Carl Walton

An awesome experience and some memorable photos. The staff was friendly, helpful & pleasant, with special kudos to Antonio who seemed to go above & beyond with hints to maximize the time spent. Relatively short stay but worth the admission! More

  • Adelene Kirby

We had a blast and I highly recommend it! It's a place where the entire family can enjoy. The staff is super friendly and they also take pictures for you. We had to wait 20 mins but we didn't mind it because we walked around and came back. More

  • Rayna

A little expensive for such a small place, but it was definitely fun & silly! I'd imagine it's even better with a few drinks/hits My friend & I just randomly wandered in here on our way to another museum. The workers were so nice & kind.

  • Charley

super neat place with lots of photo opportunities. only giving1 star because for $24 per person, (I purchased tickets online/reserved a time) they allowed too many people in so it was a wait to do certain things / felt rushed when doing so.

  • Alyssa, waywardblog

What a fun addition to Charlotte’s attractions scene! This made for the perfect date night, but it would also be wonderful as a group. In any case, we appreciated how helpful staff were in taking our photos and making the magic come alive!

  • Brandy Spears

So much for for the entire family! I had 4 adults and 5 kiddos with me today and the staff was so SO kind and didn’t act like we were a bother. Helped us with any photos & we’re just overall so friendly and welcoming. I can’t wait to go

  • Gerald Page

This place is amazing. It's not big but there's so much cool stuff packed in there. The coolest stuff are the mirror tricks of perspective and infinity, there was this gyroscope platform trick of motion, that thing was crazy, you swear

  • Sara Thornton

This spot is incredible! It might be compact, but it's filled to the brim with fascinating attractions. The highlights include the mesmerizing mirror illusions that play with perspective and create an infinite view, and the gyroscope

  • K S

This experience made my inner child happy. We really enjoyed ourselves; it was an enjoyable experience. All the employees were friendly & helpful. I would definitely bring my children here when I visit the Charlotte area again. More

  • keith wickersham

Be ready to have your perspective adjusted! Great ’sets’ and illusion displays. Fun as a family to get memorable moments photographed by you or an illusion museum staff member who will arrange your group and take pictures for you.

  • Shannon Evans

What a blast! The girls up front, Alicia and Eli were so great! They made sure my kid understood everything and we loved how welcoming they were. We loved this place and learned a lot AND took amazing photos! Best birthday, ever!

  • A Cain

My daughter and I visited the museum during her birthday weekend. We had a great time. The museum is smaller than expected, but the exhibits are interactive and fun. Come with your phone fully charged for pictures. More

  • Lu H

I recommend going here only if you're really into pictures. The actual museum is incredibly tiny and you can get through in about 40 minutes. You HAVE to walk the way they direct you to and sometimes the workers there

  • meliss Isikli

This was such a cool experience!! Definitely not like anything I've ever done before. I've lived in Charlotte for most of my life but visited this place for the first time today. I definitely recommend it!

I've been here a few times. It's a fabulous place to come with friends or on a date. The photo opportunities are endless, and it's just plain fun. I'll definitely be back. More

Wish it were bigger, however it was totally fun! We brought our 1 year old and even he played in all the photo ops. We love being silly, so this was very enjoyable! More
